would an oem oil pump be fine on a turbod set up at about 500bhp or would i need to find a uprated one?

I'v heard of a few people running stock pump Vtec6000 with quite high figuers. But dont you think it would be a good idea to uprate it at this stage if he going to change it anyway for extra protection ?
If it was me i would uprate the pump, gallerys and get the bearings drilled for that extra protection.
Hey Blinx, what valve springs are you running in your car ?
Wow ! i didnt think stock valvetrain could handle that sort of beating. I'v rev'd over 9000 before on a NA B16B but on a setup like yours i would be to scared . It just shows how much stock internals can actually handle and how good the quality of OEM parts are.
How many miles have you run up on her now Blinx ? and out of intrest what afr's did your tuner set it to for full throttle ?
11.8-12.2 are my AFR's, keep in mind i have 8.3:1 compression so i can run it pretty lean, i have about 3500 miles on the engine now, i don't drive it too much, but when i do, i drive it like i stole it!!!!! I typically shift at 8500rpm, when you have a good size turbo, you don't have the urge to rev so high anymore because the turbo does flatten out a tiny bit especially with my stock b16b cams and stock ports.
Is that on 93 octane fuel ? I was thinking that your afr's were going to be in the 11.5 range been that you have used stock internals to be honest. But i guess as you c/r is that low a little leaner wont hurt.
Lol at you drive it like you have stole it ! My mate said that to me the once when i spun out on a island. Luckly i didnt hit the kerp or a lampost.
Your car sounds like its a right load of fun. I still carnt believe how much power your pushing through stock internals lol. You must be running one of the highest power stock internal engines around.
